A Conference “Strengthening Corporate Governance in Serbia: Sustainability Reporting and the Increasing Role of Audit Committees” will be organized on May 11, 2023, in Belgrade, Serbia as part of the regional project The Road to Europe: Program of Accounting Reform and Institutional Strengthening for Small and Medium Enterprises in Western Balkans (REPARIS for SMEs).
The Conference will bring together various groups of relevant stakeholders (including auditors, professional accountants, members of Boards, including members of audit committees of large public interest entities in Serbia, professional accounting organizations, banking and insurance regulators, academics, and others) to discuss the challenges and potential responses related to: (i) new provisions of the European Union (EU) Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, including new European Sustainability Reporting Standards; (ii) implementation of EU sustainability reporting requirements, already transposed into Serbian legislation (the “non-financial statement”); and (iii) the increasing role of audit committees in strengthening confidence in statutory audit and in financial and non-financial information.
The Conference aims to build capacity, share knowledge and experience, and offer practical insights on audit committees and sustainability reporting from a local and an international perspective.
Participation in the Conference is per invitation only.
